探讨:如何使用PHP实现计算两个日期间隔的年、月

<?php
    function format($a,$b){
        //检查两个日期大小，默认前小后大，如果前大后小则交换位置以保证前小后大
        if(strtotime($a)>strtotime($b)) list($a,$b)=array($b,$a);
        $start  = strtotime($a);
        $s   = strtotime($b);
        $extend = ($s-$start)/86400;
        $result['extends'] = $extend;
        if($extend<7){                //如果小于7天直接返回天数
            $result['daily'] = $extend;
        }elseif($extend<=31){        //小于28天则返回周数，由于闰年2月满足了
            if($s==strtotime($a.'+1 month')){
                $result['monthly'] = 1;
            }else{
                $w = floor($extend/7);
                $d = ($s-strtotime($a.'+'.$w.' week'))/86400;
                $result['weekly']  = $w;
                $result['daily']   = $d;
            }
        }else{
            $y=    floor($extend/365);
            if($y>=1){                //如果超过一年
                $start = strtotime($a.'+'.$y.'year');
                $a     = date('Y-m-d',$start);
                //判断是否真的已经有了一年了，如果没有的话就开减
                if($start>$s){
                    $a = date('Y-m-d',strtotime($a.'-1 month'));
                    $m =11;
                    $y--;   
                }
                $extend = ($s-strtotime($a))/86400;
            }
            if(isset($m)){
                $w = floor($extend/7);
                $d = $extend-$w7;
            }else{
                $m = isset($m)?$m:round($extend/30);
                $s>=strtotime($a.'+'.$m.'month')?$m:$m--;
                if($s>=strtotime($a.'+'.$m.'month')){
                    $d=$w=($s-strtotime($a.'+'.$m.'month'))/86400;
                    $w = floor($w/7);
                    $d = $d-$w7;
                }
            }
            $result['yearly']  = $y;
            $result['monthly'] = $m;
            $result['weekly']  = $w;
            $result['daily']   = isset($d)?$d:null;
        }
        return array_filter($result);
    }

    print_r(format('2012-10-1','2012-12-15'));
?>
